Since I’d picked last from the sphinx’s chest, I got first pick this time, not that order really mattered with how the dungeon loot system worked. We’d all get our own specialized loot and a small sack of random stuff regardless of order.

I reached in and pulled out my prize, grinning as I recognized it as a war skirt crafted of the same materials, and in the same style as the body armor I’d gotten from the first boss.

*** Enhanced Hard Leather War Skirt of Devotion—This armor provides protection to the wearer from both physical and arcane sources. While crafted of bronze and leather, the materials have been magically reinforced to be more resilient and protective than the materials themselves would indicate. In addition, this armor provides a small bonus to Presence and Constitution. [Devotion Set 2/3]. Current Set Bonus: -5% Spell Cost***

I was smiling so hard my cheeks hurt. I grabbed my sack of random loot from the chest and set it aside before slipping on the new armor and stuffing my old armor into my pack to keep my ruined ringmail company.

Kjara took her turn at the chest while I glanced through the sack, finding fifty gold coins and a pair of major rejuvenation potions which I tucked into my belt pouch.

“Have you guys seen armor sets before this?” I asked.

“Not until this place,” Mika replied, slipping on a pair of soft leather pants made of the same material as his tunic.

“Must be new with the expansion, or maybe lower level sets just don’t exist,” I continued.

“Or specific to certain dungeons,” Kjara added, also sporting a new pair of pants.

When we were done sorting through our various loot, we headed through the door and deeper into the tomb, pausing at the top of a long staircase leading deeper into the darkness.

“What do you think the statue-lady meant about things being corrupted below?” Mika asked.

Kjara and I shared a look. We hadn’t been as forthcoming with our new companion as we should have been, but in the excitement of everything there really hadn’t been an opportunity to give him the full story.

“Okay. Where to begin… So, a long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.” I said, only to be interrupted by a soft punch to the shoulder from Kjara.

I chuckled and rubbed where she had hit giving her a playful glare before turning back to Mika. “So back in the beginning of this world there were a bunch of super powerful beings called the Primordials who-”

Mika raised his hand to interrupt me. “I’m sure it’s a great story, but I don’t really care. Just give me the short version with any info that’s going to make a difference in beating the dungeon.”

Kjara laughed at my shocked expression and while I was still sputtering, she took up the tale. “Ok, here’s the TLDR version. Old gods called Primordials built the world, got bored, went to sleep. New gods rose up, created people. One of the Primordials, Kchil’ik the Devourer, was like, ‘Nuh-uh kids, get off my lawn.
